TL;DR: The Child and Youth Resilience Measure (CYRM-28) as discussed by the authors is an international team of investigators in 11 countries have worked collaboratively to develop a culturally and contextually relevant measure of youth resilience.
Abstract: An international team of investigators in 11 countries have worked collaboratively to develop a culturally and contextually relevant measure of youth resilience, the Child and Youth Resilience Measure (CYRM-28). The team used a mixed methods design that facilitated understanding of both common and unique aspects of resilience across cultures. Quantitative and qualitative stages to its development ensure the CYRM-28 has good content-related validity across research sites. Crossover comparison analyses of the findings from the quantitative administration of the pilot measure with 1,451 youth and qualitative interviews with 89 youth support the CYRM-28 as a culturally sensitive measure of youth resilience. The implications of this mixed methods approach to the development of measures for cross-cultural research are discussed.

TL;DR: Qualitative findings from interviews with 89 youth support a culturally embedded understanding of positive youth development that better accounts for young people's resilience in western and non-western countries.
Abstract: An international mixed methods study of resilience of 14 sites in eleven countries identified seven tensions that youth resolve in culturally specific ways Resolution of these tensions is foundational to experiences of resilience This paper reports on the qualitative findings from interviews with 89 youth Results support a culturally embedded understanding of positive youth development that better accounts for young people's resilience in western and non-western countries Specifically, the seven tensions identified include: access to material resources, relationships, identity, cohesion, power and control, social justice, and cultural adherence Findings show that no one pattern in the resolution of these tensions predicts resilience better than another A case study of a Palestinian boy demonstrates the intersection of the seven tensions and the uniqueness of their resolution The implications of this work for interventions is discussed

TL;DR: The dynamics of the virus, infection and immunity, not to mention on-going efforts to revise and improve clinical care, and endeavors to develop medical treatments and vaccines, are a critical part of the unfolding story as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The dynamics of the virus, infection and immunity, not to mention on-going efforts to revise and improve clinical care, and endeavors to develop medical treatments and vaccines, are a critical part of the unfolding story. So, too, are peoples’ social responses to the disease and interactions with each other. COVID-19 is revealing, reinforcing, and catalyzing new social and cultural relations; laying bare inequalities and anxieties, discrimination and division; but also galvanizing solidarities and collective action.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the ecology of human development, those forces in the person's environment that affect and influence development, i.e., social, economic, and environmental factors.
Abstract: This chapter explores the ecology of human development, those forces in the person's environment that affect and influence development. Urie Bronfenbrenner's model of the human ecosystem guides the discussion, making connections between children in families and in communities and the larger society that surrounds them. The human ecosystem model is much like the study of the natural ecology, focusing on the interactions between subjects at various levels of the environment as they affect each other. The interaction between individual and environment forms the basis of an ecological approach to human development. This view sees the process of development as the expansion of the child's conception of the world and the child's ability to act on that world. Risks to development can come from both direct threats and the absence of opportunities for development. Sociocultural risk refers to the impoverishment in the child's world of essential experiences and relationships.
